sounds more like the same as with Fear Of God from Switzerland (when there were still full ebay-names listed in the bid-history):
"The original mastertapes of both “As Statues fell” and the first selftitled 7"EP were recently offered on eBay. I first couldn't believe my eyes. Dave & I had tried to locate these tapes for years and thought of them as lost. One of the persons we inquired about a possible posession of them was Thomas Mölch, with whom I had run OFF THE DISK records etc. back in the day. When we asked him about these tapes, he said he doesn't have them. Well, the eBay auction was of course run by this treacherous spineless wanker. Notorious for ripping off bands (like INFEST) and others and then giving me the blame for many years now, this was the lowest point for this piece of shit. Not only did he lie to us and sell stolen property on eBay (we don’t know how he managed to get ahold of these tapes; I probably had lent them to him originally): He also tried to make money off our band’s work, possibly selling it to bootlegers. As soon as we realized what was going on, we kept an eye on the auctions, informing everybody who bid about what's going on and in the end had to buy our own mastertapes back from this arsehole for 40$ each. What a cunt."_________________Tradelist + Good Traders:
